doctoral supervisor was a woman she was later went on to be late to the film of the national academy of sciences in the usa so in biology it's never been very unusual to have to have lots of women in and quite high positions it's true though that that hasn't necessarily turned into a lot of nobel prizes for women and biology famously of course rosalind franklin didn't win the nobel prize for her role in the discovery of the d.n.a. helix that went to watson and crick. and wilkinson but of course rosalind franklin had died by the time the prize was awarded in the rules state that you can't you can't have the prize awarded posthumously also that generally there's a there's a bit of a tension within the awards of the prize as to whether it should be given for a single achievement or for or for a lifetime achievement very long period of time and we have seen some prizes recently that have been awarded for for larger pieces of work taking place over longer periods of time and that in some instances has led to the award of prices to women for instance christiana new slang for hearts won the prize a boa

and the national academy of sciences agree as long as they make the complete switch and no longer smoke any cigarettes they are significantly benefiting. >> you said you use e cigarettes yourself to stop smoking. does that do you still use e cigarettes as a pleasure product or something that only to be used for medical use? >> it's not a medical use but it is a replacement. so harm reduction is about meeting people where they are. for me, i use nicotine and i enjoy it. when i previously tried to get off nicotine using the gum, patch, i quickly relapse. that's the last thing i want to happen and the last thing many want to happen to smokers or ex smokers. >> we see a lot of news lately about people being harmed through vaping. what is your response to these public concerns about whether any type of vaping, any type of e cigarettes can be safe to be used by anyone? the broad college of physicians, they estimated vaping to be at least 95% less harmful but what's been happening over the last 7, 8 weeks is that contaminated cart ridges, ones made and filled and sold by drug dealers, it's not

[laughter] how do we relate to science? ideally like we should learn in science class that a simultaneous capacity for amazement and curiosity and suspicion we stay curious and amazed but we also second-guess. ideally-- science is deeply democratic but the whole point is that we are always rethinking our habits we are always doing this asng a group so we think of it not as a thing that's done by professors but something we all have access to thinking hard about the world where susan tries to work out the definition of science which no ph

we do have ike, who is with the academy of sciences, who i think can also bring resources to us, ideas to us. i'd like to see some collaborations with other institutions in the city, like the san francisco botanical garden as well, as we look at what we're going to do in all of these different areas. for instance, i do think that we will need to have a horticultural staff that is knowledgeable about the plants that we plant, what their requirements are, and that's something that i would like to see furthered. the composting facility, for instance, it needs a wide area. and i think -- i am hopeful that we can have a lot of our soil -- a lot of our soil and the compost is like gold for the plants, and that we can have a big enough facility that we can process our own green material and u.s. it for island soil. and so i'd like for you to look specifically at that composting facility because i don't think that the yard of 4500 square feet is going to be sufficient, if you you're really having a sufficient compost facility. and we can look at other models as well. i think in general today,
